Zechariah 8:18-23 The way to victory
18 The word of the Lord Almighty came to me. 19 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “The fasts of the fourth, fifth, seventh and tenth months will become joyful and glad occasions and happy festivals for Judah. Therefore love truth and peace.”
These fasts are due to Jerusalem being broken into, set on fire, Gedaliah murdered, and the siege of Jerusalem. Right now our cities are under attack, they are being set on fire, people are being murdered, and there is a siege on the US. There is a struggle throughout the world to have one world government headed up by the AntiChrist with his pandemic passport who will identify who is obedient to him and who isn’t. Right now if you are mourning for righteousness your grief will be turned to joy. The Lord promised that those who mourn would be comforted.
20 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Many peoples and the inhabitants of many cities will yet come, 21 and the inhabitants of one city will go to another and say, ‘Let us go at once to entreat the Lord and seek the Lord Almighty. I myself am going.’ 22 And many peoples and powerful nations will come to Jerusalem to seek the Lord Almighty and to entreat him.” 23 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “In those days ten people from all languages and nations will take firm hold of one Jew by the hem of his robe and say, ‘Let us go with you, because we have heard that God is with you.’”
The world is watching, they have all been conquered by tyrants and totalitarian regimes. It will be the people of the Lord, those that love their neighbor and those that speak the truth that show the world the way to defeat these tyrants. The first thing to return will be prayer, following that there will be a testimony of those who are one with the Lord. Implied in all this is that they will be seeking the word of the Lord.
